Description

Didn't expext such a good result with the 90% moon so bright and high in the sky and expected trouble balancing RGB but very pleased with the way this turned out. This planetary is just 0.9' in diameter and is also known as the oyster nebula, the central star is a Wolf-Rayet star. NGC1501 lies some 4.9kly away in the constelation of Camelopardalis
